Kuerig christmas project

Now that the holidays are over, Its time to document our projects for ourselves and for others to see and enjoy. This is the first of several projects I made for my family. I found out in advance that my brother and fellow LJ ken was getting a kuerig single serve coffee maker. For those who are unfamiliar with this machine, it is a single cup coffee brewer that uses individual single use dispensing cups/pods. They also offer counter top cup/pod holders to hold a variety of flavors etc. I figured I could make a prettier holder.
This is actually a reclamation project of a completely messed up jewelry box I was working on. It is a simple frame and panel design. Made from cherry and a lacewood veneer panel. The base is a scrap piece of tiger maple to add some contrast. The holes drilled in the panels are 1.5 inch the cups are actually 1 3/4 but I didn’t have a bit of that size. The cups friction fit fine anyway. Since part of this project was already started it was a quick one day build. Love that. Hope you like.
